Huh. Considering her description of orgasms, I wonder how she would describe lesbian sex. The same way, or would she modify based on the lack of possible fertilization?
Alternatively, I wonder if Dina realizes that it take at least a few days for an egg to be fertilized, and that orgasms have nothing to do with that process (the actual fertilization, not the likelihood of successfully reaching that point).
I feel Dina does realize this, shes just phrasing sex in terms of human evolution, and by extent the evolution of sexual reproduction, or vice versa as Dinos are her fav point references.
Actually, while one is not inherently dependent on the other, female climax can facilitate an increase in the likelihood of fertilization to a certain degree..
Khrene
Is it bad that I want to strike up a conversation on how female climax can facilitate and increase in the likelihood of fertilization to a certain degree?
Clif
Only if you do it right.
.
Khrene
Wait, I can only do it if I do right, or is bad that only if I do it right?
“The pageantry of tricking your body into thinking an egg is fertilized” I believe is an accurate description any amount, method or source of sexual please. The actual mechanics of procreation don’t really come into the body’s ability to derive pleasure from rubbing your genitals or licking your soulmate’s eyeball or whatever you do to get off, the body is very easy to trick that way.
Dina probably keeps a log book of their sexual activities, much like Dorothy does with her own.
Wed 8/15, 6pm: Third session today. Vigorous and enthusiastic, from both parties. Noting a correlation between multiple sex sessions a day and comic book day. Causation? Requires further study.
….or possibly more than once? I had that same thought. Dina seems to have an uncomfortable amount of inside information on their sex life.
Unless, of course, Dina likes to watch, and Amber and Danny enjoy having an audience. That wouldn’t be my cup of tea, personally, but then I’ve always been pretty vanilla about sex in practice.
Of course, that would seem to contradict what Amber said about enjoying not having to think of Amber as a sexual being, but that’s beside the point.
Viktoria
I doubt they forgot, necessarily. Keep in mind that Dina is extremely quiet, relatively small, and enjoys hiding behind doors. It’s entirely possible that Danny/AG burst into the room making out, glanced around, and went to the fun without noticing Dina in the corner. Or that Dina opened the door while Danny/AG were distracted, walked into her room, and fell asleep in her bed without Danny/AG noticing her at all.

What Amber said about enjoying not having to think of *Dina* as a sexual being.
Lurlock
Dina likes to watch – but only for purely academic reasons.

Sure, but when I say that, it’s a matter for the police
Well if Danthan is to become a thing, Ethan needs to study in the Danny Wilcox Method of *REDACTED* things up. He’s getting there, and will attain mastery in due time.
oh see i was confused because i thought she was observing to herself the awkward social happening that is Danny/Ethan and their conversation.
This makes more sense, Talking about Amber and Danny and
how they “Do the thing to do the orgasm(which would normally be a decent qualifiery with “eggs have probably been bathed in Man-Juice enough if it wasnt for the condom int he way,ect) until both people are happy”
“They trick their bodies into thinking they’re making babies, and they do this as often as they want.”
The evolutionary advantage of sex is reproduction. This reproduction involves an egg being fertilized. People who enjoy sex are very common only because people who enjoy sex produce more offspring. Dina is indicating that sex is an act of making your bodies think that you’re reproducing successfully, when you might be preventing that from happening altogether. This is a pretty clever way of looking at it.
GO SCIENCE!!
Those, in a nutshell, is the facts of life, or the [i]T. rexes[/i] and the bees, if you will.
(PS Is rexes the plural of rex, or is it reces or somesuch?)
According to Wiktionary the plural in the nominative, accusative and vocative cases is “reges” in Latin (the use in taxonomy being in that language). That said I’m uncertain whether you’d pluralize like that seeing how it’s the proper name of the species and such pluralizing would theoretically indicate two such taxonomic groups rather than two members of that group. “T. Rexes” is proably the common usage in English anyway. Anyway here’s the link to the Wictionary page I took that from.
Or is it “Ts. Rex”? Tyrannosaures Rex? Like Culs-de-Sac or Runs Batted In (even if AP style dictates “RBIs.” Runs Batted Ins? C’mon AP!)
Brady Kj
Tyrannosauri reges?
Agemegos
Umm. Saurus is a Greek word in Latin form — the direct transliteration is “sauros”. Dual should be -sauro and plural -sauroi. But by the time you’ve got to “Tyrannosauro reges” (or “Tyrannosauroi reges” if it’s a threesome or orgy) you probably have three grammars in a single sentence, and something bad is going to happen.

I think that Dina knows perfectly well why people have sex, but she enjoys playing into her assigned role as “strange logical dinosaur girl”.

I agree. Dina likes dinosaurs. Where do dinosaurs and sex intersect? Eggs.

Maybe Dina has a Slipshine account?

Yes! She is a creeper who got it when she found out her friends wee posted there.
Until one day: “I do not recall performing such an act upon Becky. Copious notation is required.”
Rowen Morland
All Slipshine panels are drawn from Dina’s viewpoint.
Mr. Random
Who knows, maybe they’re all into that.

Who says they forgot?
Plasma Mongoose
You think it was only ONCE? Dina has seen ALL the sexing.
StoicVisions
Well of course. All the nsfw DoA releases had to be from someone’s perspective. Who better?
electromagneticDestroyosaur
So that’s how she was able to afford a Tricera-Top as a college student. All that Slipshine money (this is now my headcanon)
Deanatay
No, it’s not about money, for Dina. She is collecting valuable information about sexual behavior. She is the Alfred Kinsey of her generation.

Sometimes money and observing intercourse can coexist. Dina is simply being optimal

Not just the DoA works. Ghost Dina is watching you bone.
